Specificity on the type of restraints that constitutes a Behavioral Health Plan that would require an Indepenedent Review Committee approval would be helpful. Example; Would a treatment plan that includes Mechanical retraints ordered by the individuals MD also require an approval by an independent review committee?

The Independent Review Committee's behavioral specialist term is vague - please clarify requirements for the behavioral specialist..
